About the Item

Beautiful and colorful is how we like to describe this early 20th Century Persian Sarouk Lilian Hand-Knotted Area Rug or Wide Runner. Woven with meticulous care in the early 1900s, this exquisite piece immediately evokes a sense of timeless grandeur. The rug's captivating floral design is particularly striking, reminiscent of the intricate and luminous patterns found in the beautiful stained glass windows of Europe's great cathedrals, such as Notre Dame or Chartres. This unique inspiration lends the rug an almost ethereal quality, transforming light and space. The design unfolds beautifully across a rich red color field, serving as a warm and inviting backdrop for the profusion of blooms. The intricate floral motifs are rendered in a harmonious and vibrant palette of serene blue, verdant green, delicate pink, sunny yellow, and creamy ivory. Reflecting the characteristic charm of Persian Lilian rugs, this piece showcases a delightful array of color variations within its design, adding depth and visual interest. A prominent central medallion anchors the composition, drawing the eye to its intricate details, while an elegant vase motif at each end of the rug completes the sophisticated overall design. The entire masterpiece is gracefully framed by a deep navy blue border, which provides a striking contrast and enhances the rug's classical elegance.
